HTTYD 2 was by no means a flop due to it being 'dark'. The problem lies somewhere else i guess. Mostly the marketing and the publicity, and mainly, the 4 year gap between the 2 movies. Not that i blame Dean for it, but many people forgot about the original after such a long time.

First of all, the movie wasn't by any means a flop. True, It didn't make the amount that people expected it to make, but a 600,000,000 dollars gross counts as a big hit. It also out-grossed the original and as of now is the highest grossing animated film. So it was a flop at all.

Other than that, who knows? Sometimes audiences can be dumb and go watch a bad movie because it's more main-stream(Transformers 4 anyone?) instead of the high-quality challanging animated film because sadly, we live in a world animated films are seen as "Kids films". I don't agree with this at all but that's the main public unfourtently.

I don't think time gap is much of a problem as well, seeing how "Sherk 2" came out 3 years after the original and "Toy Story 3" came out 11 years after 2 did; yet both still blew box-office records.

Speaking of "Toy Story 3", remember that movie's ending? Sad but, still happy? I think that is what they are planning with HTTYD 3(Kind of a shameless plug here but, read my FanFiction "Goodbye, Bud" to see what I mean in concept) and to be honest, I'm okay with that. There is one thing that these films do that not a lot of animated films(Or films in general actually)do; have consequences. So, leave on a happy go lucky ending for a franchise that took risks is kind of taking a step backwards. Therefor, as much as it will pain me to say it, I think Hiccup and Toothless should be seperated by the end. However, seperate them on a good note. That's my stand.
